Corn with White Miso Butter

1/4 cup shiro (white) miso

1/2 stick unsalted butter, softened

Sweet corn, cooked as desired and left on the cob

Total Time:
5 mins, plus corn-cooking time

Makes:1/2 cup white miso butter

Inspired by a recipe Chef David Chang created for Momofuku, this simple mixture takes rich butter and umami-laden white miso and combines them for a savory topping perfect for corn on the cob. Miso replaces the need for salt here, and is a great balance to the sweet corn. If you have any left over, try sautéing scallops in this versatile butter.
